As a drummer of almost 30 years, I can honestly say this is some of the tightest, most technically proficient playing I've ever seen. You've clearly ascended to god-tier drummer.

[@drumsplayerdirtracer7541]

Check pit matt garstka, the drummer for this band. He is the true master! Lol you will age more just watching him play. This guys here is a badass too, though not to take away from his!

[@Xenfold]

@@drumsplayerdirtracer7541 Matt Garstka is amazing as well, still easily one of my favorite drummers ever. These two definitely have wildly different styles, it's super cool to see this interpretation.

[@JoshHennings]

Check our Chris Turner’s channel. He’s the drummer for Oceans Ate Alaska. Super clean, technical, just mind blowing.

[@CharGuitarGirl]

I am so impressed by how small the kit is, yet the covers are never lacking. Your originality is phenomenal. A small part of me still craves seeing you play with maybe one more tom just to see what you can come up with. As for the Varus kit, it sounds incredible… their sales 📈📈📈

[@thefourshowflip]

Same. If I was only listening to the audio, I’d have a hell of a time realizing he’s playing this all on a 3 piece; small kit, HUGE sound. 🤘😈🤘

[@joshcochrane4382]

There's other vids where he uses a Tom. And plenty where he uses less than here, like a single kick. He's just phenomenal. He's posted old vids where he has a large kit. He doesn't need it.

[@maness2112]

I cant live without 1 high tom.

[@CharGuitarGirl]

Josh Cochrane but he’s constantly improving, you don’t ever stop improving and I don’t think there much recent stuff on a bigger kit. I agree he doesn’t need it though, I’m just curious to see what he would come up with. I still enjoy this so much 👌👌

[@GloamingMoon]

I've been a musician for 39 years, and I've been almost exclusively playing the drums for the last 23 of those years. Just a couple comments. First, you are an incredibly talented, extremely well practiced drummer. You play the drums like you're breathing, it's that natural and organic. You're also a human metronome, dude. Your timing is rock solid, flawless even, and your use of dynamics gives the way you play a ton of impact and palpable passion. Second, your drums sound so, so good! You always have a killer, beautiful snare tone that's fat, bright and punchy all at the same time. The rest of your kit is icing on the cake, man! Hearing you play that beautiful kit makes them sound as good as they can. Thank you for making and sharing these videos with us. They're so inviting that I get knocked off guard when you start playing as beautifully as you do. Keep it up!

[@mattroiddread]

That kit sounds great, hell of an advertisement for Varus. That snare especially, goddamn

[@hazardeur]

it's likely less the snare and more the really good production, a room with great accoustics and some good mics with a very well tuned snare and fresh skins. and of course great playing! not saying the snare is bad but you don't need a very good snare for achieving a great sound with all these prerequisites

[@mattroiddread]

@@hazardeur true, I was thinking more in terms of how much better it sounds than the Yamaha. Just more tonality and warmth. And this is coming from someone who loves Yamaha snares

[@DannyTOG]

@@mattroiddread probably because he doesn’t have a weight on it for once

[@EsaelPaggin024]

Also his consistency with nailing good sounding rimshots is definitely a contributing factor.

[@TheSilenceIsBroken1]

Jesus Christ, that was filthy. You’re the only person I’ve ever seen do their own interpretation of a Matt Garstka song and then add MORE to it. Great job, I was looking forward to hearing this & as usual you did not disappoint.

[@m0sketti]

I feel the same! Like, most AAL drum covers try to replicate the Gartska part hit for hit, which is in itself extremely impressive and commendable, but what he's done here is something special. His personal style still manages to shine through, even in a song this dense. It's pretty amazing

[@TheSilenceIsBroken1]

@@m0sketti couldn’t have said it better! I can’t wait to see more, hopefully he covers more AAL in the future. I really want Matt to release a drum play through of “monomyth” though, I specifically asked for it on his page a few weeks ago lol. He hasn’t gotten back to me yet. 😂

[@dannbravo8755]

He added more with only 3 drums lol

[@MK_Ultra_Victim]

The sound, the look, the camera shots, the DRUMMING WAS ABSOLUTELY FUCKING INSANE. Everything about this video was incredible. 🔥mr mucho dingdong 'out does' himself, yet again🔥

[@KasumovMedia]

El Estepario is the final boss. Someone who takes Gartska's drumming and somehow makes it more tight and difficult on a smaller set.

[@henri1298]

People need to recognize how hard it is to play this song normally. And he added SO MUCH more. Jesus Christ.

[@ryanfallon]

If my eyes were closed, I would assume you had a 20+ piece setup. The WIDE variety of sounds you make with whatever is in front of you at the time blows my mind! You are drums. Drums are you.

[@seanmichael8202]

I think I’ve decided you are the best KZbin drummer. There’s a lot of good drummers creating content, but I believe you’re the best. I watched your Benny Greb reaction video, and now this. Yup... You’ve made it to my #1 spot 🤘 I think you were pretty much always on top, but covering Animals as Leaders with your crazy ass style? Yeah. Killer

[@sethkite3580]

undoubtedly one of the best drummers on the planet. purely amazing

[@ryanhass8716]

I don't really go too far down the KZbin drummer rabbit hole (so take my opinion with a grain of salt), but I'd have to agree with you. He's got chops for days and knows when to show restraint and when to go balls-to-the-wall

Honestly I wanna see Mat Garstka's comment. Matt's one of the absolute best, and this dude killed it on a smaller kit. Incredible.

[@andycrookshank7784]

Man I'd love to hear a drum only version of this. Your use of ghost notes is amazing. Shit, your overall dynamic control is amazing. As far as the next song, it'd be awesome to hear you cover some Larnell Lewis and Snarky Puppy.

[@3rdJAR]

1:49 dam that is sick. He never ceases to amaze me

[@3rdJAR]

So precise and methodical. Never misses a beat not the double bass is so precise it’s incredible. Like a machine gun on steroids. Everyone during either long or short quick bursts such as in nightmare during guitar solo almost everyone I watch has barely noticeable but present slip on occasion. This guy never does. Not just that but everything is so spot on. That crazy fill where while you are hitting the floor Tom you are crossing over and hitting snare simultaneously is dope. Stay classy my bearded jerkoff! Keep them coming.

[@3rdJAR]

2:26 also and 2:40. The bell is very technical.you really gotta split your brain in four or five pieces. For beginners I think is trying to play and not hit the hi hat and bass drum at same time being able to have them each doing their own thing

[@dantheman52420]

I get the feeling that even though you filled with double the notes that are in the actual song, you could probably fit twice as many in those fills and still execute it perfectly. Truly insane execution here, I'm just amazed.
